What is important to you in a new job? We tend to ask all our candidates this question when they start the job-seeking process because one or more of those needs are not being met by the current employer.

What do you do when you’ve got your heart set on a role and you don’t get it? Where to from here?
You have a few options:
1) Do nothing. You can continue working at your current role and take time to think about future options for yourself.
2) Understand the feedback that was given to you, learn from it, and better prepare yourself for the next application.

What do you do as an employer if two agencies send you the same candidate? There can be candidate ownership issues, fee payment issues, “I sent you the CV first issues” – so many issues!
In the below scenario, one recruitment agency (Dodgy Agency) has not spoken to — or revealed the employer name to — the candidate. The other agency (MediJobs) has qualified the candidate for the role and only then sends them to you.

It might surprise you to hear this – but we don’t want you to leave your job. If we had a dollar for every candidate who got pissed off with their employer and started applying for jobs before trying to resolve the issues we’d be in Hawaii drinking Mai Tais right now.
Your relationship with your employer can become particularly strained around wage-review time. Here are our tips for handing your wage review like a pro.

Farah demonstrates a strong level of understanding, connections and capability within the broad personal injury sector. I have found her very proactive, personable and service-orientated. She is committed to working with her clients to deliver a strong human resource outcome for her clients.

Farah has always been extremely helpful and professional. She has integrity and I can rely on her recommendations.

Renee was of great assistance in finding me a job in the Occupational Rehabilitation sector. Being new to this industry, Renee recognized my transferable skills and was able to on-sell these to an employer who subsequently hired me! Renee had great insight into my skills and knows the industry intimately, which really helped.

I was a recent graduate contemplating entering the occupational rehab sector but did not know where to turn. One email to Connie, Renee and Farah and my candidate profile was created and sent to numerous rehab organisations. The following day I received a request to interview and was offered the position the following day. I was cautious in my approach to working in this area but the team at MediJobs offered unbiased advice as to what each company could offer me as new graduate. The team at Medijobs work to find the perfect match between their available candidates and their employers. If I could offer one piece of advice it would be to get in contact with MediJobs if you are even slightly unsure of what the landscape looks like within the occupational rehabilitation sector. Farah, Connie, and Renee are there to discuss with you what you want in a job and what you might want to achieve one, five, ten, or even 15 years down the track and help you navigate your future now. Give MediJobs a call, you won't regret it.

Connie worked with me when I was a graduate trying to find direction. Connie became the reason why I ventured into Occupational Rehabilitation and has continued to be a valued mentor and a professional I trust.
- Saranyae Manisegaran, Advanced Personnel Management

Connie was able to organise a meeting with an employer the day after I got in touch with her, and facilitated an offer within a matter of days. I would recommend Connie to professionals at any stage in their career who are looking to work with a highly competent professional, and an incredibly compassionate human being.
